that is what vlans are for. but having only gigabit ports is limiting here.

RISC-V is quite wimpy this far, so it’s not even clear if it can saturate a gigabit with features turned on. The one benefit is that it doesn’t have Intel IME/AMT, AMD PSP or ARM TrustZone backdoors built-in, but I would be extremely surprised if the Chinese SpaceMiT CPU didn’t have Chinese backdoors of its own.

I helped a bit to develop this UI myself. Support for vlans was baked into it from day 1. The idea being good admin/guest/iot/hosted/etc separation without extra access points.

VLANs would appear to defeat the ease of use aspect here. Plus that means you need managed switches, and know how to use them.
